What happens to child support payments if the father is jailed?

If the father was paying you directly, the payments will, of course, cease. If this is the case you must contact the state for assistance.
If you were receiving the support payment from the state, then nothing will change and his payments to reimburse the state will become an obligation/lien against him for which he will eventually have to pay the state back.

You will need to take a paternity test to prove you are in fact not the biological father.

Always take the test to be sure and then you can make the right decision.
